# Results of a batch

Source: https://joinsimplesms.com/docs/api/batches/get-batch-results
Index: https://joinsimplesms.com/llms.txt

`GET /v1/batches/{id}/results`

What happened after the queue: `attempted = delivered + failed + pending`. `delivered` and `failed` come from carrier delivery receipts; `pending` was accepted by the carrier with no final receipt (`no_receipt` of those never got one). `replies` are inbound messages from recipients to the sending number within `reply_window_hours` of the batch finishing (opt-out keywords are not counted); `stops` are recipients who opted out in that time and are still opted out. `spent_usd` sums the recorded price of each message. `failures` groups failed recipients by reason. Derived from stored messages and cached for up to a minute while numbers can still move; `partial: true` means a read bound was hit and delivered / replies are floors.

Send your API key as a bearer token: `Authorization: Bearer ssms_sk_...`. Test keys run this endpoint against the [sandbox](/docs/sandbox); see [Authentication](/docs/authentication) for key modes and scopes.

Every error has the same JSON shape, and `request_id` matches the `X-Request-Id` response header. [Errors](/docs/errors) lists every code and what to do about it.

```json
{
  "error": {
    "code": "invalid_request",
    "message": "What went wrong, in plain words.",
    "param": "the_field",
    "request_id": "req_a1B2c3D4e5F6g7H8"
  }
}
```

## Examples

### curl

```bash
curl -X GET "https://api.joinsimplesms.com/v1/batches/bc_a1B2c3D4e5F6/results" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SIMPLESMS_API_KEY"
```

### Node.js

The Node.js SDK does not wrap this endpoint yet; call it with `fetch`.

```javascript
const res = await fetch('https://api.joinsimplesms.com/v1/batches/bc_a1B2c3D4e5F6/results', {
  method: 'GET',
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.SIMPLESMS_API_KEY}`,
  },
});

if (!res.ok) throw new Error((await res.json()).error.message);
const data = await res.json();
```

### Python

The Python SDK does not wrap this endpoint yet; call it over HTTP.

```python
import json, os, urllib.request

req = urllib.request.Request(
    "https://api.joinsimplesms.com/v1/batches/bc_a1B2c3D4e5F6/results",
    method="GET",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['SIMPLESMS_API_KEY']}",
    },
)
with urllib.request.urlopen(req) as res:
    data = json.load(res)
```
